Desperate for Supporters, DeLay Turns to Stephen Colbert
A good sign that Tom DeLay doesnt have the facts on his side: the top source for his latest defense against his critics is Stephen Colbert.
This morning, DeLays legal defense fund sent out a mass email criticizing the movie The Big Buy: Tom DeLays Stolen Congress, by Outfoxed creator Robert Greenwald.
The email features a one-pager on the truth behind Liberal Hollywoods the Big Buy, and the lead item is Colberts interview with Greenwald on Comedy Central (where Colbert plays a faux-conservative, OReilly-esque character). The headline of the fact sheet:
DeLay thinks Colbert is so persuasive, hes now featuring the full video of the interview at the top of the legal funds website. And why not? According to the email, Greenwald crashed and burned under the pressure of Colberts hard-hitting questions, like Who hates America more, you or Michael Moore?
Apparently the people at DeLays legal fund think that Colbert is actually a conservative. Or maybe theyre just that desperate for supporters.
